Presentation transcript:

The Endocrine System Hormones = chemicals that are used to pass information around the body – (In the NS it was electrical signals; now it’s chemical signals) Endocrine Glands = organs that make and secrete the hormones Blood Capillaries = run through the gland and pick up the secreted hormones, then carry them through the bloodstream

Hormones Hormones travel all through the body (in blood), but only affect target organs. Insulin’s target organ is the liver – (but it’s made and secreted by the pancreas!) Hormones eventually get broken down by enzymes and excreted by the kidneys.

Endocrine Glands

Fight or Flight

Adrenaline Adrenaline = a hormone that increases your metabolic rate – Prepares your body for “fight or flight” Comes from the adrenal gland – Just above your kidneys Your brain sends a nerve signal to adrenal glands, stimulating them to secrete adrenaline into the blood.

Adrenal Glands

Adrenaline’s Functions Increases heart rate Increases blood glucose – (T.O. = Liver) Restricts blood to digestive system; increases blood to muscles – (T.O. = Arteries/arterioles) Increases width of lung passages – (T.O. = Bronchii/bronchioles)

Adrenaline… What is its function? What endocrine gland does it come from? What is its target organ?
